I had a Perl script which looked just like this but loaded up programmable data.

I am still trying to find this, it would make it easy for us to have our own built-in version of this feature for the script... and its GPL :)

Well here is one that is perl, and SMALL and simple... and could easily be used to set up a Members World Map...Right now it is set up to display Airports around the world... just by figuring out a way to set up a Users data file instead of the airports one... you got it...http://dheera.net...

Running total of visits to the above URL since 1 Apr 2007: 9,962 (not necessarily all displayed - see below).Visits on previous 'day': 918.

Additional Notes about totals and map updates (for full guide see Map Key):

The map shows individual visits to the web site shown at the top of the page, clustered within a given distance.

The location of each visit is based on the IP address of the computer used.

In order for your map to be 'updated' (whether daily, weekly, or monthly) the number of visitors shown must also have grown by a certain percentage since the last update. This is explained more fully in our FAQ about update frequency.

Total/subtotal discrepancies above are typically caused either by IP addresses not currently being in the database or by the gap between counter tallies (continous) and map updates (which may be daily, weekly, or monthly).

Oh that's really cool! I think only about half of our members fill out the country in their profile. And a lot of them seem to have the United States as their country, even though they obviously have foreign e-mails.
